Chapter 123: Teaching

According to the original cultivation system, if you don't have spiritual roots, you are doomed to be unable to cultivate. It is even more impossible to change your fate.

Whether or not you have spiritual roots, and the quality of your spiritual roots, can determine a person's fate.

Just like reincarnation, it takes fate too seriously.

The method that Zhang Fulong will pass on next does not require spiritual roots to practice.

Ordinary people can also try to practice.

Of course, this method does not mean that there is no threshold, but that compared to the spiritual roots that determine fate, this method has the probability of changing fate against the sky.

Different from spiritual roots, practicing this method focuses on the roots.

What are roots? It's a bit complicated to say. It is a comprehensive assessment of qualifications, luck, bones, blood, etc.

The stronger the roots, the faster you can practice. In this regard, the demon race is better than the human race.

As early as ten thousand years ago, the mountain king on Changbai Mountain had created the blood method. Until today, the demon race has been practicing according to this.

In other words, the roots of the demon race are now stronger than those of the human race. Once they practice this method, they will definitely soar to the sky and their strength will definitely crush the human race.

Zhang Fulong said Shen Ziyi could practice cultivation. He did not teach Shen Ziyi to become a cultivator, but to make Shen Ziyi a Qi-refining practitioner.

So he chose Shen Ziyi as the first person to whom he would teach, which was also a way to repay Shen Anyi's kindness.

Zhang Fulong said to Shen Anyi: "If the head of the Shen family trusts me, you can give your son to me for teaching."

"Ah?"

Shen Anyi exclaimed. He originally wanted to ask Zhang Fulong whether Shen Ziyi had spiritual roots and whether he could practice cultivation.

Who knew that things were far beyond Shen Anyi's expectations. He did not expect Zhang Fulong to accept Shen Ziyi as his disciple.

This was a great thing. Shen Anyi hurriedly pulled Shen Ziyi to Zhang Fulong.

"Rebellious son, why don't you pay homage to the master."

Shen Anyi planned to first settle the master-disciple relationship between the two, and then make up the apprenticeship ceremony later.

To put it bluntly, Shen Anyi was afraid that Zhang Fulong would regret it later.

Shen Ziyi was about to do as his father had told him, but was stopped by Zhang Fulong.

"Master Shen, there is no need to do this. I only teach, I don't accept disciples, so these etiquettes are waived.

Please rest assured, Master Shen, since I have promised to teach your son, I will teach you everything I know. How much your son can learn from me depends on his ability to comprehend."

The latter words were said by Zhang Fulong specifically to Shen Anyi, telling him not to worry, even if Shen Ziyi did not become his disciple, he would teach Shen Ziyi carefully.

Zhang Fulong saw that Shen Ziyi's foundation was not very bad, and he was a little better than ordinary people.

Because Shen Ziyi has many more blessings.

Where did these blessings come from? Did he bring them from his previous life?

Impossible, the Netherworld had just been established, and there was no reincarnation yet, so how could Shen Ziyi have a previous life.

There is only one truth.

The blessing of Shen Ziyi is entirely due to Shen Anyi's usual good deeds, which are returned to Shen Ziyi. Otherwise, where would Shen Ziyi's blessing come from?

In other words, Shen Ziyi has a good father.

Zhang Fulong said this, Shen Anyi felt much more at ease, and no longer forced it.

"My son, I'll have to trouble you to teach me."

"Master Shen, you don't have to be polite. To be honest, I want to thank you.

I'll have to talk more about the Shen family, please bear with me."

"Master, don't be modest. I still say that you can stay as long as you want. This is the blessing of my Shen family."

Although Zhang Fulong did not use any means, in Shen Anyi's eyes, Zhang Fulong is already a hermit.

Shen Anyi is naturally very welcome to such a master as Zhang Fulong.

Not to mention staying for a while, even if you live for a lifetime, it doesn't matter. In terms of food, clothing and shelter, Shen Anyi can afford to support one more person.

This matter was settled, and Shen Anyi also brought this good news to his wife.

Shen Anyi's wife was also very happy when she heard it.

"Did the Taoist priest tell what kind of spiritual root Yi'er has?"

"..."

Shen Anyi was silent when his wife asked this. He was so happy that he forgot about this matter, and Zhang Fulong didn't tell him.

Shen Anyi had an idea in his mind, whether Shen Ziyi's spiritual root was too poor, and Zhang Fulong didn't want to hit him, so he didn't tell him.

It must be like this, otherwise, why wouldn't Zhang Fulong tell him.

As for whether Zhang Fulong would lie, it's still the same thing. Shen Anyi has been traveling around for so many years, and his eyes are still able to recognize people.

Shen Anyi is very relieved to hand Shen Ziyi over to Zhang Fulong for guidance, otherwise, he would not let Shen Ziyi become his apprentice.

Don't use people if you doubt them, and don't doubt people if you use them. This is Shen Anyi's principle of using people.

"Don't worry about Yi'er's spiritual roots, as long as Yi'er can practice, it doesn't matter what kind of spiritual roots he has."

Shen Anyi didn't expect Shen Ziyi to have any high-quality spiritual roots, as long as he could practice.

Shen Anyi still had a sense of the level of their family. If they could produce a cultivator, it would be a great honor for the ancestors.

Shen Anyi decided that when he visited the grave next year, he would burn more paper money for the ancestors, so that the ancestors would keep more cultivators in the descendants of the Shen family.

After listening to Shen Anyi's words, his wife also agreed, so she didn't ask any more questions, and it all depended on the results of Zhang Fulong's teaching.

After talking to his wife, Shen Anyi went down to prepare the apprenticeship ceremony.

Although Zhang Fulong didn't accept Shen Ziyi as a disciple, the two didn't have a master-disciple relationship.

But then again, Zhang Fulong had the grace of preaching and teaching Shen Ziyi, and he was also half a teacher, so the proper etiquette should still be there.

The Shen family doesn't lack this apprenticeship ceremony, and you can't say that if Zhang Fulong doesn't want it, you won't give it.

It is their business if they don't want it, but it is your business if you don't want to give it to them.

The Shen family is so big that they can't do such a thing as getting something for free.

"Excuse me, teacher, what kind of spiritual root am I?"

This is the first question Shen Ziyi asked on the first day Zhang Fulong taught him.

Don't get me wrong, this question was not taught by Shen Anyi and his wife, but Shen Ziyi wanted to know it himself.

To cultivate immortals, one must have spiritual roots. This is engraved in everyone's bones, and even slightly older children know it.

Therefore, Shen Ziyi wanted to know what kind of spiritual root he had, and never doubted whether he had spiritual roots.

Zhang Fulong did not answer Shen Ziyi's words, but asked: "Teacher asks you, what kind of spiritual root do you think you have?"

Shen Ziyi didn't think about it, and answered directly: "Of course it is the spiritual root of heaven."

In his eyes, the spiritual root of heaven is the strongest, and he also wants to be a spiritual root of heaven.

Zhang Fulong smiled at this.

This is the thinking of children, whoever is the strongest will be chosen, a very pure thought.

Shen Ziyi probably didn't know that there were special spiritual roots above the natural spiritual roots, and these special spiritual roots were generally stronger than the natural spiritual roots.

If Shen Ziyi knew, he would definitely answer that he thought it was a special spiritual root.

"It doesn't matter what spiritual root you have, the teacher will teach you the strongest practice method today, okay?"

Zhang Fulong still didn't tell Shen Ziyi that he didn't have spiritual roots. This kind of words was too much of a blow to a child.

When Shen Ziyi heard the words "the strongest practice method", his heart moved and he nodded in agreement.

No matter what Zhang Fulong taught, it was the strongest anyway.
